The IBM® i
keystore
type IBMi5OSKeyStore does not recognize or generate .sth password
stash files. Instead it keeps an internal record of the password for
the .kdb keystore
file where it is created. If the .kdb file is moved, the
password
is no longer associated with the keystore. In that case, you must
use the
Digital Certificate Manager (DCM) to recreate the internal record
of the password
for the .kdb keystore file.
About this task
To recreate the internal record
of the password for the .kdb keystore
file, start the DCM. For more information, see the Digital Certificate
Manager
information.

a message displays that confirms that the
password is changed.
- Repeat steps 1 through
5 to create the internal record of the
new password for the .kdb keystore file.
-
Repeat steps 1 through 12 to change the password back to the
original
password and to create the internal record of the original password
for the .kdb keystore
file.
